TJ,
What's a Backplate and Pin?

[tj189]

Sorry, the pin is a badge that has a pin through it for putting on your riding jacket.   The back plate is a backing plate for your numberplate. hope that makes sense.

What's a Backplate and Pin?

FWIW, this is the backplate:



As you can see, it can pair with another numberplate surround, e.g. OzSTOC's.

a question ?    do I need to register on IBA before the ride?

No. While this certification process is a little different to the norm the IBA generally don't need to hear from you until you send them your ride documentation.

Ok, hopefully Brock will post some files in here for me.  there are two GPS files, one a gpx file and one a kml file for those of you that use a GPS.  My route planning tool of choice is TYRE http://www.tyretotravel.com/
There is also an excel file which is planning tool I use for my trips. Please look at a gps file and the excel together as the gps points relate to the planning tool.

There are a number of rest stops/areas plotted as there are a number of petrol stations.  I have marked some refueling stops in the planning tool but please choose where you would like to refuel and stop.  This is just to take a lot of the legwork out of the planning for you.

If you have any questions then please post them up here.

If Brock is unable to add them here I will send them out to you all via email.....watch this space

The gpx file doesn't download as a file, but as a listing.
Tried twice.  The other two came in just fine.

[Brock]

Hmm

That is interesting. It is actually a text file, so in one way its working correctly but not the way we want. I will work on it and see what I can do.

[Biggles]

I suppose we could copy it into a textfile and rename the extension "gpx".
